To apply to any degree program you must be in your senior year or a graduate of a Bachelor's degree program comparable to that offered by MSU. To begin a Master's degree you must have completed a Bachelor's degree. To begin a Ph.D. program you ordinarily will need to have completed a Master's degree or the equivalent. Typically, the undergraduate major and prior graduate studies will be in an area of the biological or other relevant sciences, and must include course work appropriate to support the graduate program. Students lacking sufficient course work may be admitted provisionally until such deficiencies are removed by completion of collateral courses.

Ordinarily, a minimum GPA of 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale) during the last two years of an undergraduate degree and in prior graduate programs is required for admission to any status (regular or provisional). The department faculty have agreed to consider provisional acceptance of students with GPAs in the range of 2.75-3.0. This exception is only made under unusual circumstances where there is strong evidence indicating likely success in graduate studies. Current departmental practice is to not consider students for admission if their GPA is below 2.75. Acceptance into the department is competitive and the 3.0 GPA requirement is a minimum standard, not a guarantee of acceptance. In recent years, the average GPA of incoming graduate students has exceeded 3.5. Applicants who are not native speakers of English must demonstrate proficiency in English.
